Upper estimated price slightly exceeded

The work Dead Leaves And Letter (1819) by Helen Torr was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in December 2009. Here, the upper estimate of USD 30,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 31,250.00 (€ 21,804.35). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Helen Torr achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Imagined in May last year with an auction result of USD 239,400.00 (€ 223,091.98).

Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen

Die Arbeit Dead Leaves And Letter (1819) von Helen Torr kam im Dezember 2009 bei Sothebys in New York zur Auktion. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von USD 30.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für USD 31.250,00 (€ 21.804,35) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Helen Torr erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Imagined im Mai letzten Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 239.400,00 (€ 223.091,98).
